Thanks for the response.

I went digging in the manuals and also found confirmation of this and yes,
this system is a master replica. Hopefully, this will run clean tonight !

Re: Problems with Netware backups






Somewhere along the way (version 5.2.x of the TSM client if memory
serves), the ALL-LOCAL domain was updated to automatically include NDS
backups on servers that hold replicas.  I fixed the problem by changing
the domain line in the dsm.opt file for all of my replica-holding servers
(except the one I actually perform NDS backups from) to the following.

DOMAIN                           ALL-LOCAL -NDS:

That still does an all local backup, but excludes NDS.
